Abstract

We explore empirically the impact of the world real estate crisis on the UAE real estate market. We consider the Global Financial Crisis (GFC) in our investigation. Besides the asymmetric causality test methods we also use recently developed asymmetric generalized impulse response functions and variance decompositions, which separate the effect of positive shocks from those of negative ones. The empirical results that this paper provides can be very informative and useful for both investors and policy makers. L’impatto della recente crisi sul mercato immobiliare degli Emirati Arabi Uniti: evidenze da metodi asimmetrici Questo studio analizza empiricamente l’impatto della crisi del mercato immobiliare mondiale – nel contesto della crisi finanziaria globale – sul mercato immobiliare degli Emirati Arabi. Oltre ai test di causalità asimmetrici, abbiamo anche sviluppato funzioni asimmetriche con risposta generalizzata ad impulso e decomposizioni di varianza, le quali separano gli effetti degli shock positivi da quelli degli shock negativi. I risultati empirici di questo studio possono essere molto informativi ed utili sia agli investitori che ai policy maker.
